4/4 Cubs (Lilly) @ Reds (Arroyo) 6:10CT CSN+/XM185

[A New Era]

Not a very smart play leaving DeRosa in, but it paid off.

 

who would you have hit there?

 

that's the izturis we know and love.

 

It works, and Cub fans complain. :?

 

Some people are pre-programmed to complain about anything.

yes, we're known as Cub fans ;)

 

So am I the odd one out? I guess I didn't get that gene as a Cubs fan.

[BigbadB]

Exciting to see the bottom of the order coming through today.

murton

 

i don't see the point in that at all.

 

murton over izturis? really?

 

theriot already pinch hit, so he would go to short while murton would have moved to left for floyd, who theriot pinch hit for...

 

give me murton everytime

[DurbanJer]

Bulls fans - Hinrich having great game on both ends of the court in Detroit.

You're hardly the odd one out.

Either Murton or Ward.

 

DeRosa vs. RHP

 

.260/.316/.366

 

 

Murton vs. RHP

 

.289/.351/.436

 

 

Ward vs. RHP

 

.267/.318/.457

 

ward's a double play waiting to happen and there's no sense in burning murton to ph for another righty when you may need him later.

Cards now losing 2-0 on a homer by Beltran!!

Tyrus is playing well too despite being sick.

 

This has the potential to be a real good night :D

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Beltran with a 2 run HR in the 6th. 2-0 Mets

I have powers, I have the box score up and saw beltran up and was thinking "I hope he hits a blast"

Did you guys see this??

 

MLB.com

 

Major League Baseball announced today that iN DEMAND has entered into a seven-year agreement in principle to carry the MLB EXTRA INNINGS subscription package of out-of-market games and will distribute the MLB Channel, which is scheduled to launch in January 2009.

 

The MLB EXTRA INNINGS subscription package of out-of-market games is currently available to DIRECTV subscribers. iN DEMAND owners Comcast, Cox Communications and Time Warner Cable have agreed to carry the package, effective immediately. iN DEMAND also will offer to make the MLB Extra Innings subscription package available to other cable companies across the U.S. Like all distributors of MLB Extra Innings, these cable operators would also be required to carry the MLB Channel once it is launched.

No. He would've pinch-hit Murton for DeRosa, and put Murton in LF and Theriot at 2B.

At first I thought he hooked it foul, but it managed to wrap around the pole and stay fair down the RF line.

i was saying there was no point in hitting murton for derosa.

[Flames24Rulz]

Gameday had that ball all the way to the wall.

 

Nice inning from Howry.
